• We are building a supportive and flexible working environment by offering health & retirement benefits (location based), generous vacation time and daily challenges and growth.

About the role:

Your tasks as a backend developer of Kisi will be a lot of things, but never dull. In helping us build a highly robust and scalable public API (used by hundreds of thousands of users from all over the world!), you will:

• Collaborate with our web, mobile and hardware teams 
• Design and maintain internal frameworks and standards
• Work on improving security and performance of endpoints and background jobs 
• Work on internal tooling for logging, error reporting, releasing, testing etc.

We move fast, plan frequently, release to production daily and keep our meetings short. Our API is currently a Rails monolith running on Heroku & GCP, and we're documenting it with OpenAPI 3. Familiarity with this stack is a big plus!
